What we do

Charlton Toy Library is a fun, stimulating and safe place. It provides families with a place to come and meet other parents, play with their children or get advice from our very experienced members of staff. We serve hundreds of families in and around the borough.


Toy Service

Our toy selection is fantastic with age ranges from 0 up to 7 on selected toys. We have a wide range of story-sacks, special needs toys, baby toys, games and puzzles, dressing up and many more. Find out how to borrow.


Books

We have an extensive range of children books and also adult books covering all aspects of childcare, health, meal planning, disabilities and many more topics. Find out how to borrow.


Outreach Service

We run a much-needed Outreach Service to disadvantaged families across the borough. This service provides support and advice to parents & carers, and supplies toys, books, games and child safety equipment completely free of charge to families who cannot afford them. Please contact us if you need help: outreach@charltontoylibrary.org.uk



Stay and Play Sessions

We have a lovely play area for children and their carers to come play and socialise. On Tuesday and Friday mornings we have a very popular singing session. On Thursday mornings we have a sensory play and singing session. All sessions are free of charge for Charlton Toy Library members.


Birthday Parties (we don’t host parties currently)

The toy library can be booked for children’s parties. We generally advise that our space is suitable for the under-threes. As we have an enormous amount of play & dressing up equipment, parties can be themed. Please contact us for via email for further details: info@charltontoylibrary.org.uk


Other Events

From Easter and Christmas parties to Pamper evenings and nearly new sales, we organise a variety of events ourselves to help raise much-needed funds for the Toy Library.
